Chapter 96 [Fighting the Tiger]
It was June, and although it had not yet entered midsummer, the weather began to get hotter than the warm wind in spring.
Sixty miles northeast of Donghai City, there is a huge primeval forest with a radius of nearly a hundred miles, which is one of the few primeval forests in Yan State.
Because the forest is extremely dense, with branches and leaves, and the trees are lush, even with sunlight, it is difficult to penetrate the layers of branches and leaves into the forest. The forest is always dark and cool all year round, so people call it the "black forest".
There are many wild animals in the Black Forest, ranging from snakes, insects, rats and ants to tigers, leopards, bears and wolves, all of which are available. Therefore, those who are brave like to hunt in the Black Forest.
However, wild beasts in the Black Forest are fierce, and hunters are attacked and killed by wild beasts from time to time. Therefore, the government later stipulated that without good equipment and teams, hunters are not allowed to enter the Black Forest. Once they enter the Black Forest, there must be at least a team of three people.
At this time, deep in the black forest, eight horses were passing by in dense shades. Everyone was wearing strong clothes, black scarf wrapped in their heads, big swords on their waists, arrow boxes on their backs, and bows on their hands, holding people like tigers and horses like dragons.
Several of the riders were even full of prey, and there were no need to mention the pheasant and rabbit, and there were also two dead wolfs.
"Fifth Young Master, it seems that I can't meet a tiger or leopard again today." Yiqi whispered: "These wild beasts were so scared that they hid in hiding when they saw the Fifth Young Master and did not dare to come out."
This man is pretty and beautiful, but he is Han Mo's confidant Han Qing.
Han Mo, who was in front, grabbed the horse and turned around and cursed, "Where did you learn flattery from? You are used on me, I won't eat this one." He pointed to the horseman next to him and said, "Look at Zhu Xiaoyan, how calm!"
Zhu Xiaoyan glanced at Han Mo and said lightly: "I'm just about to learn to flatter, but I can't learn it."
In addition to Han Mo and Zhu Xiaoyan, the other six were from the Black Panther team led by Han Qing. There were ten Black Panthers, and the other four followed the sea boat to the countries in Nanyang.
Black Panther is the direct best friend Han Mo has carefully trained over the past decade. Each of them is a powerful character. He has strong skills, quick response, quick work, cautious work, and loyalty. Han Mo spent a lot of effort to select these ten people back then.
Originally, this was Han Mo's most hidden power, and it was not known to outsiders. However, when Xiao Jing was ambushed, Zhu Xiaoyan already knew the existence of the Black Panther, so for Zhu Xiaoyan, this matter was no longer secretive.
Zhu Xiaoyan's equestrian skills are amazing, and Han Mo admires them very much. He and the Black Panther members have their weaknesses in equestrianism, so they often come to the Black Forest for a while, first to practice archery, second to relax, third to let Zhu Xiaoyan lead everyone to practice equestrianism.
Zhu Xiaoyan did not refuse. He carefully explained the key points of equestrian to everyone and demonstrated them personally. After a few times, everyone passed through this dense black forest, which was very smooth. Although the time was short, the equestrian had significantly improved.
Han Mo likes this jungle very much, natural, primitive, and full of exciting challenges. A real man will not be afraid of the sinisterness here, but will only accept this challenge very excitedly.
...
Han Mo got off the horse, and everyone dismounted, unloaded the water bag from the saddle, gathered around Han Mo and rested first. Two black panthers were standing guard on the left and right.
Han Mo looked up and took a sip of water before smiling at Zhu Xiaoyan, "Xiao Zhu, if it weren't for you to stare at the maids in the mansion, I would have thought you were a monk. Look at you, this is not a good habit, and when women see you, they are afraid they will look down on you."
Zhu Xiaoyan said expressionlessly: "Fifth Young Master, my name is Zhu Xiaoyan. If you don't want to call me a name, you can call me Xiaoyan. This little Zhu sounds a bit strange."
"Okay, Xiao Zhu!" Han Mo said with a smile.
Zhu Xiaoyan rolled his eyes and said, "A monk is not lustful? And eating and drinking lighter will not only not harm people's physical fitness, but also can keep the clearest mind at all times."
"It makes sense." Han Mo laughed and leaned closer, "Then do you admit that you saw those maids?"
Zhu Xiaoyan said lightly: "I didn't say I don't like women!"
Everyone laughed suddenly, and Han Qing smiled and said, "Brother Zhu, this woman is such a good thing, and the maids in our mansion will pick up any of them. They are all the best beauties in Yan State."
Most of the Black Panther members are about the same age as Han Mo, and Zhu Xiaoyan is the oldest among them. Moreover, when everyone saw that Han Mo respected him very much, they regarded him as his family, so they called him "Brother Zhu".
Han Mo looked at Zhu Xiaoyan with a smile and said softly: "Xiao Zhu, which one do you like? Do you want me to help you get together?"
Zhu Xiaoyan looked at Han Mo with a strange look, suddenly shook his head, picked up the water bag and poured it into a sudden sucking like drinking, and then said, "Marrying a wife is my own business, and I appreciate the kindness of the fifth young master."
Han Mo raised his thumbs up and said, "Good man, it's not bad. What kind of woman do you like to do by yourself."
Han Qing smiled and leaned closer and said, "Fifth Young Master, you...hehe...you can help me get one together?"
"You?" Han Mo smiled strangely and said lightly: "Han Qing, don't deny that Feihua and Zhuyue in the mansion have been killed by you? If my mother knew about this, hehe, I really don't know what the consequences would be!"
Han Qing was startled and said, "Fifth Young Master, you... do you know?"
"How can I not know how many roundworms are in your belly?" Han Mo curled his lips and said seriously: "Since you have been bed with them, you must not let them down. At that time, I will say to you and give them both, but I can warn you that two are enough for you. If you do it again, be careful that Master, I will really cut off your thing."
Han Qing subconsciously covered his crotch and hurriedly said, "I dare not, I won't hook up anymore." Everyone burst into laughter, and Han Qing was even more happy. He felt like he had eaten honey when he could get two women.
Everyone was talking jokes, but they were not restricted.
Although Han Mo has a noble status, when he is with this group of people, everyone feels no pressure at all. Han Mo treats this group of people like his own brothers, frank, funny and kind.
Apart from Zhu Xiaoyan, this is a group of young people who came together at the age of six or seven. They are intimate and have no secrets.
While talking and laughing, Zhu Xiaoyan suddenly looked dark, frowned, and said in a deep voice: "There is movement!"
Everyone was well-trained and listened quietly immediately. After a vague sense, they heard a low roar from the south.
"You have a good ear!" Han Mo smiled at Zhu Xiaoyan and suddenly said in a deep voice: "Get on the horse!"
It is like eight agile cheetahs, quickly turning over the horse's back and urging the horse to gallop south.
In just a moment, the voice became clearer, and someone said, "Fifth Young Master, it's a tiger!"
"Yes, it's a tiger." Han Qing also shouted: "The tiger in this black forest is fierce, young master should be careful." Although Han Mo's interest is to find beasts like tigers and leopards to practice, Han Qing and others have to worry about Han Mo's safety.
Although Han Mo is as powerful as a cow, has good skills, and has the blood copper Yin and Yang stick beside him, no one has ever really killed a tiger or leopard until now, so he has to be careful.
Another loud roar came, and the horses that Han Mo and others sat down stopped, raised their hooves and neighed, and did not dare to move forward. Only Zhu Xiaoyan sat down on the Wei horse, and still rushed forward with a rainbow of momentum. If Zhu Xiaoyan had not stopped him, he would have been afraid that he would have rushed away in a blink of an eye.
Han Mo looked at the Wei horse under Zhu Xiaoyan's seat and sighed in his heart: "Wei horse is indeed unparalleled in the world. He is not afraid of beasts. I must have a strong Wei horse in the future."
"Dropping off the horse and hiking!" Han Mo issued a brief order. The "Black Panther" all dismounted, with a knife on his waist and a bow in his hand, and stepped forward to protect Han Mo.
In addition to the roar of tigers, everyone also heard horrified screams coming from the front, which were obviously human voices.
Han Mo waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Let's go!" He took the blood copper Yin and Yang stick and ran to the south first. In just a short moment, he saw a tiger hanging from his eyes fighting with two hunters in the forest ahead. A corpse was already lying on the ground next to him, and half of his head was bitten, which was terrible. The two hunters were covered in blood. Seeing that it would not last long, they shouted for help.
The "Black Panther" is quick to move, bends his bow and arrow, and wants to shoot the tiger. Han Mo stopped and said, "The hunter is entangled with the tiger, and he will shoot the person if he accidentally shoots it. Don't act rashly." He himself carried the blood-copper Yin-Yang stick and rushed forward like a cheetah, shouting, "God-sick beast, grandpa is here to meet you!" He rushed to the next side of the tiger in a few steps, carried the Yin-Yang stick, and smashed it hard at the tiger with all his strength.
Han Qing and others were about to rush forward to help, but Zhu Xiaoyan said lightly: "The Fifth Young Master obviously wants to use a tiger to practice. Do you want to disturb his Yaxing?"
Han Qing frowned. He knew Han Mo's temperament well. The fact that he was killed was Han Mo's personality. He immediately stopped and ordered: "Arrow hits the string. If the young master is in danger, shoot the tiger immediately."
The tiger was entangled with two hunters, just like a cat playing with a mouse. It was also a pity that the two hunters were strong and strong. If they were ordinary people, they would have been torn to pieces by the tiger long ago.
Han Mo stepped down with a stick, and the tiger was not wary of it and was hitting its back. Han Mo's strength plus the power of the Yin-Yang stick, and with a "click", the bones on the tiger's back seemed to be broken.
"Woo beep..." The tiger let out a deafening roar, but did not lie down. Instead, it put down the two hunters, swung the tiger's tail and swept Han Mo.
Han Mo knew that the tiger's tail was called the third weapon of the tiger. In addition to sharp teeth and claws, the threat of the tail should not be underestimated. This tail swept over it, like a powerful whip, full of lethality.
Han Qing was already shouting: "Young Master, be careful!"
Han Mo did not hide and greet him. He stuck his left hand out and grabbed the tiger's thick and long tail. Following the tiger's power, he pulled it down like a Tai Chi. The tiger turned over and fell to the ground.
Han Mo didn't wait for the tiger to turn over and hit it with another stick. Seeing that it was about to hit the tiger's head, Han Qing and others exclaimed at the same time: "Young Master, there is another head behind!"
He himself also felt a strong wind coming from behind, and a fishy smell penetrated into his nose. He did not dare to neglect it. He flashed to the left quickly. After glancing, he saw a shadow pounced by the side. It was another tiger.
If Han Qing and others had not spoken to remind him that he would have been quick to move, he would have been beaten by this beast.
The tiger pounced on the air, and the other wounded tiger also got up, facing Han Mo, and wanted to pounce on him.
Han Qing no longer cared about anything else and shouted in a deep voice: "Arrow!" Even Zhu Xiaoyan felt the situation was steep and wanted to pull the bow and shoot the arrow. Before everyone could shoot the feather arrow, he heard a crisp "swoosh" sound, and a feather arrow shot out from the other end of the forest like lightning. With a "puff", it was shooting on the big eyeball of a tiger. The tiger roared sadly and fell to the ground.
Everyone was surprised and saw a figure jumping out from the opposite side, carrying a snow-white silver spear, and his body was as strong as Han Mo, and he rushed towards the tiger like the wind.
